Knowledge Quarter

📣 The Alan Turing Institute is delighted to unveil this year's highly anticipated Turing Lectures! This year we’ve partnered with the Knowledge Quarter to explore how AI is changing our world and what it means for you. This series explores the complex relationship between artificial intelligence and society, examining its impact on our democratic processes, decision-making systems and, crucially, trust. As AI becomes increasingly integrated into our lives, we face key questions about its role in shaping our future. From its influence on political landscapes to its potential for perpetuating societal biases, AI presents both opportunities and challenges. This lecture series aims to equip attendees with a comprehensive understanding of these issues, exploring how we can harness AI's potential responsibly. By exploring AI's impact on government, decision-making processes and our broader society, these talks will provide valuable insights for citizens, policymakers and technologists alike. The series will ultimately help guide us towards a future where AI serves as a tool for progress, without compromising the core human elements that define our societies and interpersonal relationships. 🎫 To find out more about this year’s lectures and book your tickets visit: https://bit.ly/3MlJt7l #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #AiEthics #DataScience #Research #STEM #TechIndustry #Technology #TuringLectures

Another brilliant show at the Lethaby Gallery in King's Cross, featuring the work of students from Central Saint Martins, University of The Arts London. Launched as part of the London Design Festival, the Observatory invites us to look at the world with fresh eyes. Exhibits explore our past, present and possible futures through creativity, collaboration and innovation. Lots of ideas on display from hair made with pineapple fibre to the future of (insect) food. I particularly enjoyed the videos and imagery from students exploring hidden lives with family and community stories. Thank you to Knowledge Quarter and Kate Keara Pelen for an enjoyable morning.
